    GREAT TIP! Thanks! I'm anemic and I know that lemon juice on my broccolli will help me absorb the iron. But, I always forget to do that and, well, I don't really like it on raw broccolli. I'll try this, though.

    hmmmmmm.......... a thought now that some one mentioned bacon:-) Maybe this could be turned into the broccoli salad without using the mayo/sugar dressing. Toss with a little bacon, grapes and sliced almonds (and of course bacon). Make it a meal served on top of cooked sprouted brown rice or quinoa.

    Love roasted veggies! My favorites are Brussels Sprouts, Beets, Sweet Potatoes and Broccoli. I also use grape seed oil instead of olive oil. Healthful they are pretty much the same, but Grape Seed has a cleaner taste so the flavor of the veggies comes through more.

    I love fresh asparagus. I spray the stalks with olive oil and put them in the oven and broil them until the tips are brown. Sprinkle a minuscule amount of salt and pepper. So delish.

    I love broccoli never thought about baking it though. Will definitely try
